The sets are certainly designed for kids so they’re definitely for kids. Besides, ships don’t lose their cool factor for children just because some time has lapsed. If anything, there’s too many adult sets on the market hogging up space for kids, it’s sad to see.

The new midi scale line would’ve been a perfect opportunity to do a Chimera, rather than doing yet another Falcon for adults when there’s already a UCS and playscale version on the market. I feel a playset Chimera won’t do it justice.

Putting a new product behind another set’s $650 paywall is a horrible way to gauge interest in the product that is secondary to the main one you’re buying.

Love how they did lightsaber GWPs twice and then just dropped it forever

Another Redditor posted a link sharing a picture of the figure from the customs subreddit. It’s fake

I am not making any distinction between “adult” and “18+”, I am using the terms the way Lego marketing uses them, they are synonymous terms. Play sets by this logic would be called “kids” sets, as they are the intended audience, just as adults are the intended audience of “18+” sets, regardless of the fact that anyone in any age group can buy any set in any age range. I’m far more interested in the latter. I also didn’t say anything to contradict your claim that we have no information on summer sets, I merely stated the truthful observation that adult sets usually don’t release during this time frame

Perhaps, but I think all the photos on the survey were just rough works in progress. A sail barge does make sense though, with the Cantina retiring next year, it’s an MBS-like set to replace that void. This year, the only non-UCS adult set that released in the summer was the buildable Chewbacca. We currently don’t know the identity of at least one diorama, and one other set (possible another buildable figure) but we do know the rest.

We already have a thread for 2024 sets. We actually know almost all the adult sets releasing next year, which is kinda crazy. There’s only room for maybe ~2 more unknown dioramas, and perhaps one more non diorama/UCS set to round out next year’s adult display catalogue. I agree with you about releasing more minifig-centric sets, you’ll be happy to know we’re getting the Sail Barge next year which will almost certainly come with a big, eclectic cast of characters like the Cantina. I really wish Lego would go back to releasing MBS sets every two years, I know that Star Wars is more vehicle-centric, but I look at themes like Harry Potter, which I don’t care for or collect, and see sets like Diagon Alley, Hogwarts Express, and the new Gringotts Bank and I get jealous of all the wonderfully detailed, location-based sets they get.

Feels like a moot point considering they’ve already done around the leg printing for LSW figs like the UCS Landspeeder C-3PO. In fact, given that set is “merely” $240, it seems even more odd that they wouldn’t give the same treatment in a $650 set.

Every UCS set since 2015’s Slave I has come with a figure that had at least one exclusive element. The character of Rex won’t be exclusive, but either the arm printing, face printing, or both will possibly remain exclusive to the set. The same applies to Yularen, they almost definitely won’t make a figure with his dual moulded legs again.

I sure can, it’s one figure

I feel that if Marvel CMFs get printing around the legs, Star Wars figures in a $650 set absolutely deserve the same treatment

It was a funny observation lil guy, relax

Seems better suited for a 2025 wishlist

Hasn’t next year’s MBS already rumored to be the Sail Barge? I’d kill for a Geonosis set but I don’t see Lego releasing two $350+ sets in the same year
